Experience Overview:
Bioluminescent Clear Kayak Tour In OrlandoFlorida bioluminescence is the #1 kayaking trip in the Orlando, Cocoa Beach area!
THIS TOUR IS FROM KIWANIS ISLAND. LOCATED 10 MINS FROM COCOA BEACH
During the warm summer months the waters of Florida's Indian River come alive with single-celled microorganisms called dinoflagellates. Every movement in the water produces a cold-light called bioluminescence! From the swirl of your paddle or the trail of a speeding school of mullet (which look like hundreds of blue-green underwater bottle rockets), to the ghostly glow of a slow moving manatee or sting ray, every movement is illuminated.
No need to just hit the theme parks, this is one of the rarest phenomenons on earth and it's right here in sunny Central Florida, 60 minutes E of Orlando. Everything you need is provided (Trained guides, P.F.D., kayak, paddle, flashlights, glow stick). You will be on the water for 90 minutes.
Have you ever been kayaking before?
If you have, then you probably know how magical of an experience it truly is. Kayaking allows you to feel as though you?re one with the water and all the life within it. It gives you the opportunity to interact and maneuver through the habitat of so many different species. What could be better than that? You may be thinking ?nothing?, but you?d be wrong; there is one thing that?s better, and the answer to that is clear kayaking! Yes, you heard it right. Clear kayaking. This means that you get all the benefits of being in a normal kayak, but on top of that, it?s also a completely see-through kayak. Sounds cool right? Well it is, and here?s why.
You now get to be even closer to all of the Bioluminescence that you would normally see in a kayak tour.
This means that the dolphins, manatees, stingrays, crabs, comb jellies, fish, bioluminescent dinoflagellate (if you?re going at night), and maybe even crocodiles could all be swimming right below your feet, with no kayak to block your view! The beautiful waters of the Indian Lagoon combined with the clear bottom kayak mean that you won?t miss a thing! It?ll feel almost as though you?re not even in the kayak at all and allow you to completely immerse yourself with the incredible nature and wildlife of Florida. The clear bottom kayak will change the way in which you view kayaks forever. It truly is a unique experience in a unique environment.
Whether you?re a tourist or you just feel like experiencing the nature of your own state in a new light, the Florida Adventurer Clear Kayak Tour will provide you with a once in a lifetime experience time and time again.

Florida-Adventurer
Whether it is your 1st time on the water or your hundredth, the adventure is never the same twice - there is always something new to discover in the outdoors of our great state of Florida. Our owners grew up surfing, kayaking, boating and fishing on the waterways of central Florida. It was always a dream to make the water their office. So it made sense to continue their relationship with this amazing ecosystem, to do their part to be vigilant in their duties to the environment, and to educate the visitors of this great state with candor and comedy.
